Re: Kansas and West Virginia

We are in big trouble for both of those games. Our O is not playing well and our D can't seem to get it together without Knott. Our D is still okay, despite not really stopping Texas since the first series.. but our O needs the D to play lights out.

This is a good point. Our run defense sucks because we're playing off-kilter. KU is going to come out running because its all they can do. Without threat of the pass, we're looking at a better match up against KU.

Re: Kansas and West Virginia

Our defense has a better matchup against KU I think, as long as we can tackle Sims. Not being able to tackle Tavon Austin or any other WV player will be a big problem. Offense won't be able to keep up with WV.

We should definitely be able to line up to tee off against the run. Heading into this game, KU was averaging just 161 yards passing. Then 9th ranked pass offense was averaging 53 more ypg.

But their rush offense is damn good, and I didn't like the way Texas was able to run it right down our throats most of the day. We need to shore things up in a hurry, or we could miss a bowl game after starting 4-1.
